I Think America Got It Wrong...

Nothing against Michael Grimm, I just think Jackie Evancho is better... Not to mention that she's only 10 years old.

Yeah - but for a ten yr old that sings opera - what kind of future would be in store for her? Frankly - I would spend money to see Prince Poppycock in Vegas over the last two finalist - He's just flamboyant enough to have a career anywhere he goes. But hey all four finalist were really good acts in their own - they'll surely have contracts with someone after the show!

The wife and I have been following that and every time I hear Jackies voice it sends shivers down my spine. She will be a superstar soon.

I'm with Starleen -- I liked Prince Poppycock. I love colors, costume, and especially that era of costume. He's fun to watch.

Not much into Poppycock's type of entertainment :?

We wanted Jackie to win but we did not really have a problem with either or the two finalists winning. Personally, Fighting Gravity would make a better "Vegas" show.

I like Jackie and will buy her cd (you know she will have one soon) but I was concerned about a 10 yr old in Vegas. Like Susan Boyle in 2nd place, Jackie will sell a lot of records and have a fabulous career.
I would like to see fighting gravity in a show.
Michael Grimm will go far. and I am so happy that he can do something for his grandparents. That makes it truly special.

As usual America picked a singer. :roll: I don't know why they bother letting diffrent acts through if all that ever wins are singers.

ImageThat's right I had forgotten about that. Well at least most of the time America picks singers.

Singing Ventriloquist ... Mr. Fator has an awesome talent, one of the best ever.

Prince Poppycock had my vote, because of the flash of the act, that's entertainment. Released from thought, memory or worry!. That's entertainment. Queenie Jeanne HUUMMMMMMMM could be with have something in common too! :lol:
HEY a tiny trailer. Whatever it takes.
